- Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for.
- Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
- In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
- Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
- Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like
<ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>
, copy the whole thing). - In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
- If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:
==References== {{Reflist}}
- Thank you! :-)

[edit] Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Logicism, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Massive over-categorisation. See WP:CAT and esp WP:SUBCAT. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:45, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- Same problem with your edits to Gottlob Frege, Craig Callender, and Social democracy, all of which have been reverted.
- Plus, your edit summaries are very unhelpful. For example, if you add categories, say "add categories", not "added information". For more info, see WP:EDITSUM. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:52, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Beauty. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Phlsph7 (talk) 16:36, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Metaphysics, you may be blocked from editing. Phlsph7 (talk) 05:32, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry, but I pointed out that aesthetics is actually one of the five (not four) subsets of philosophy. I'm confused - how is that vandalism?
- There is a disagreement on this point so you need to use the talk page to present your arguments and wait for consensus instead of continuing to just repeat your edits. Other editors keep on criticizing you on your talk page and in their edit summaries, please listen to them so as to not repeat the same mistakes again. Phlsph7 (talk) 05:58, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

Burgess overlinking, UK countries
[edit]Hello and thank you for your efforts on Anthony Burgess. Before you edit again please have a careful read of WP:OVERLINK as it will help to avoid your getting reverted. In addition, please do not go changing UK countries, adding UK after England, the whole thing. Really really not. It is an incredibly delicate area and best (a) left alone completely till you have much, much more editing experience or (b) approached carefully and gently through the article Talk page, where you must first seek consensus for the changes you propose. You might also want to take a look, please, at WP:BRD – you did B, I did R, and now you need to D! Hope this helps, thanks and best wishes DBaK (talk) 07:32, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you, got it.
UK
[edit]Hi again! Sorry to nag but please please don't add dots to the UK in articles in British English. As you will see at United Kingdom the standard BrE usage is just UK. And if it is an article in American English then, sure, the rules may be different. But honestly not in BrE please. Thanks! DBaK (talk) 07:42, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- Again, thanks.
- You're very very welcome. Happy editing! Cheers DBaK (talk) 23:05, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

[edit]categories
[edit]Please read WP:CATSPECIFIC, WP:CAT#Articles before you add any more categories to articles. Articles do not need to be in a parent category if they are already in a child category. Mitch Ames (talk) 09:39, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

[edit] You are suspected of sockpuppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the policy. Your editing pattern is quite similar to that of User:RealisticIdealist1995, an account that edited many of the same articles as you, over-linking, over-categorizing, and leaving deceptive edit summaries as you are doing.

[edit] Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
I noticed your recent edit to Ian McEwan does not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits a summary may be quite brief.
Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary, and then click the "Save" button.
Thanks! Theroadislong (talk) 13:28, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

[edit] Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. You appear to have resumed your campaign of mass over-categorization on articles and of using misleading or inaccurate edit summaries. Please stop.

[edit] Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Kathleen Raine has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. Thank you. As noted above, you're using mass over-categorization, overlinking, and misleading or inaccurate edit summaries.

[edit] There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.

[edit] You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia. Please cease adding new categories to pages. you are not helping, you are making the encyclopedia harder to use. Read WP:OC and WP:DEFINING and please find another way to contribute to the encyclopedia. - car chasm (talk) 20:21, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Carchasm It appears this is still an issue since the same overcategorization related issue with this editor just popped up on Roald Dahl, Ineedahouse, please address the problem. TylerBurden (talk) 04:51, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

[edit] Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Tacyarg (talk) 15:06, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you, will do.
